Beckham however is reported to have said that both events are equally important for him. " Both are important and I will attend the wedding and will fly back the next day to play the match," he was quotated as telling an American soccer web-site.

Galaxy coach had earlier refused to comment on the issue saying that 'he is better off not deliberating on the players' social calender.
